água retirada


Explanation:
Água retirada ou retiradas de água.

Água retirada do seu reservatório natural subterrâneo. O termo "withdrawal" é usado para designar o total de água retirada do reservatório subterrâneo, o que é diferente do consumo efetivo, pois parte da retirada pode percolar de novo para o solo e se reincorporar ao lençol freático. Para a distinção entre os dois conceitos (retirada x consumo), v. ref. (1); para a ocorrência bilíngue wuithdrawal/retirada v. ref. (2).
